The obverse features an exquisite, deeply detailed portrait engraving of Empress Catherine II (Catherine the Great) inside an ornate oval vignette, alongside a powerful allegorical figure of a young warrior holding a laurel branch and sword. The background is filled with complex guilloche work, imperial crowns, monograms, and traditional decorative flourishes.
